Emax

Hey there-
most likely is a connection problem.
Reseat the display perhaps, or resolder the pins on the LCD board....

another possibility is the LCD controller IC on the LCD itself could be
going bad too.

In that event you just replace the whole display.
They are typical $15 to $20 US....

Regards,
Ted
